Avi Rubin is a Computer Scientist with almost a decade
of industry experience followed by over 20 years in academia. After receiving
his Ph.D. in Computer Science from the University of Michigan in 1994, Dr.
Rubin worked as a researcher at Bellcore and then at AT&T Labs. In 2003, he
joined the Computer Science faculty at Johns Hopkins University and was
promoted to Full Professor with Tenure in 2004. During his over 20 years at
Johns Hopkins, Dr. Rubin was Technical Director of the JHU Information Security
Institute, along with his regular faculty position. In 2023, he was appointed
Computer Science Professor Emeritus at Johns Hopkins. Dr. Rubin is a frequent
keynote speaker at industry and academic conferences and delivered widely
